Purple Book 03:19
PURPLE BOOK Some mother's son, some father's daughter The happy are fun, somewhere near water Halloween in Cape Cod, any night in New York! Castro is cookin', Key West pop a cork! Got a purple book, tell us where to go Where we get no look, where the people know And she's leaving home, and he is off the throne But they are not alone! Some mother's son, Some daddy's daughter Moms and Dads play dumb, some doing what they oughta' Girl scouts in drag, racing to the border Sex machine don't say, I'm out of order Some of them play sly, older man young guy Sometimes there's love, sometimes there's "Why" And she's leaving home, and he's kicked off the throne But they are not alone! Some mother's son some daddy's daughter Still a species taboo, but here like sand in mortar! Some mother's son, some father's daughter The happy are fun, somewhere near water And she's leaving home, and he's kicked off the throne But they are not alone! Some mother's son, some father's daughter Surprise Surprise, kinda different from what we thoughta!

Aging Woman Aging Man 12-25-97 Aging woman still looks so good Retain attainment, stay in the mood for love Secret aging man, do what you can Aim to please, down on your knees to understand And in due time we’ll find ourselves still in love This aging woman still feels young You’ve kissed her lips and now you’ve begun to love My Aging man has worked so hard Dirty mind, go wash up for love And in due time we’ll find ourselves still in love You’ll age so gracefully with gravity, not fighting it off… Gravity on muscle skin and bone Where I ask, did the spring go? Where did it go? Those summer winds were a thermal delight Cars in heat on a winters’ night for love And in due time we’ll find ourselves still in love This aging woman still can move Older scratchy needle still in the groove for love The aging man back in the trance Hypmotized… its’ in the eyes let's dance And in due time we’ll find ourselves still in love You’ll age so gracefully with gravity, not fighting it off…

Summers’ coming I’m getting into shorts. Follow my progression even if your dissed… Honestly I do believe that you are staying true to me…

The World’s Playground The World’s Playground ain’t a playground no more The kids are slingin’ sand and my eyes are sore The world’s playground rusty monkey bars The swing is gone and it used to be ours... HAHAAHA Tons of make-up million dollar façade Where are the pearls when money is God… HAHAHA And it feels like nothin’s new Except concrete greedy attitude So keep goin’ south till’ you hit Cape May And save your money, don’t gamble it away… hey… The World’s playground has the Donald Trumps Taj ain’t no Harlem, just brings in the chumps Our Diving Horse swimming under Steel Pier Cooks Books is rolling in the grave over hereRt Here Leave the boardwalk with a jaded eye Cause you 7’d out and your pockets are dry. HAhAHA And it feels like nothin’s new Except concrete greedy attitude So keep goin’ south till’ you hit Cape May And save your money, don’t gamble it away… hey… The World’s Playground ain’t a Playground no more Has youth left forever? Well I’m not sure…

True 04:00
TRUE I Believe in true love, you’re not gonna change my mind I’m holding on to what I know… Picking and choosing each step so carefully Now I'm letting go of recklessness… I have banisters for the ups and downs I’m holding on to what I know… I’ve seen moms and dads fail and grow cold But we can work it out and into the fold TRUE I believe in true friends, you’re not gonna change my mind We need to use all that we know… I believe in true love, you’re not gonna change my mind I’m holding on to what I know…

Male Order Bride A mail order bride, for a lonely guy Afraid of a life alone swallows his pride Plumage goes out, both sides tell about Biographies, Telepathies, across oceans mouth to mouth But you pray for an angel, on your knees for a goddess Doing all you promised…a green card for a kiss. Family, Friends confused, not used to foreign views’ Easy boys and easy girls, consenting to be used CHORUS 100’s of Photos 100’s of lives Many are no-no’s maybe’s and wives for life..FOR LIFE! A mail order bride, the exotic creates wide-eye A Russian to Thai, the male, down, stares wishing to change their lives… That male order bride, the dominant submissive side A maid, a slave, forgiving eyes, both along for the ride CHORUS----BRIDGE A mail order bride, for a lonely guy Afraid of a life alone swallows his pride

Punk Rock Roots You pulled up your roots, your punk rock roots, withered away Those salad days, question “A”s, rebellious ways, invented faith Hope I die way before I get old I may sound like someone you might have known In the past it was hard and fast Now your soft and slow dead wood don’t grow Some took it light, saw different light, with all their might, have lost their way For those involved, in the midst evolved, became absolved, safe for the freeway Hope I die way before I get old I may sound like someone you might have known In the past it was hard and fast Now your soft and slow dead wood don’t grow All the songs. Could right the wrongs where have they gone? There’s still some wrongs You were so pissed, perpetual fists, against what exists. And now that’s history You pulled up your’e roots your punk rock roots withered away A stupid is as stupid does, you are a was, do what they say You pulled up your roots your punk rock roots…

No Compromise at Sea Another day gone by I didn’t say anything Another year I’m shy, I kept it all in But I didn’t lie to me I didn’t force that plea No compromise at sea Another wave another phase, I didn’t say anything Another plane and malaise, I held it all in And I didn’t lie to me No denial let it be No compromise at sea Through a portal, I’m looking out to the oh shit Seasick of myself oh do I quit, nowhere to go Do I give in? 6 mo. Wanderlust landlubber or bust My principle’s invincible in my name I do trust I didn’t lie to me No one is there to be No compromise at sea Screaming throats sinking boats, wonder if I float Overboard I wisp the words: Don’t know if I know Did I lie to me? The trauma lets me see The compromise at sea…

We Love our Monsters We love our monsters yes we do Lugosi, Jaws, Manson, to T-2 From the Scottish Lochs, to the Motley Crue We love our monsters yes we do… Boris Karloff no laugh boo Ole’ Lon Chaney and Jr. too Politikal figures in the news We just can’t get enough of you… We love our monsters yes we do In the theatre of life holding on to you Thrill of getting’ the shit scared outta you We love our monsters yes we do… And you’ll never getaway too soon Cause here’s the creature from the Black Lagoon And Friday the 13th is Halloween And Chucky and Edward are cutting up the scene…

The Backroads I’ll Be Cruisin” The backroads With my friends the dogs, lizards and toads Why do I feel the way I do, I’ll tell you This big ole’ city I can only take so much A lot of people there…well, there out to lunch Cause they haven’t seen the trees, the fields the bugs With their tinny proverbs and their grumpy mugs Why do I feel the way I do? I’ll tell you I’ve got my motorbike and a full tank of fuel The breeze round my body makes me feel really cool And I got a pretty girl holding on my belt loops And she’s holding on tight so she don’t say oops! I said the backroads have to share themselves with me, and you Some people ask me why you wandering around They think I’m on acid but my feet are on the ground And I’m not taking the interstate to your town Not after this back road peace that I have found Now why do I feel the way I do?… I’ll tell you Now we’ll get tired and stop for a while Maybe at a diner with a foreign smile I’ll have a cup of tea and you’ll have a soda Then up goes the kickstand and we’re back on the road Now why do I feel the way I do? I’ll tell you HUSH… Now I gotta be mobile in all sense of the word Like a peregrinating falcon bird Out on the road with a trail of dust I can’t be hangin round in the pants with the crust I said the backroads have to share themselves with me, and you

Sorta Fearless I’m not afraid to tell you how I feel Maybe it’ll be different in a year I’m not afraid to ask you what you think I value my own ears I’m only sorta fearless, Am I getting old? Gravity and ground get near us I’m on this plane and I’m jumping out I’m not afraid to jump and free fall Eventhough you’ve got my back I’m not afraid to come when I’m called Just look where I’m at I’m only sorta fearless, Am I getting old? Gravity and ground get near us I’m on this plane and I’m jumping out I’m not afraid to tell you what I think I’ll make that pretty clear Sorta fearless and sorta fearful There’s a balance here I’m only sorta fearless, Am I getting old? Gravity and ground get near us I’m on this plane and I’m jumping out

Soaring Icarus A young bird will say look what I can do Destiny is a fact in blue Truth and Freedom to Gag and Restraint upon you A breach in a word is something no one deserves Your 50 years old could be 100 or 22… The house you’ll fly from is down and in two You listen and do which will is for you To High you melt to low the misty dew Soaring Icarus, gave us a great big kiss Then Crashed into the sea… Now he’s missing me Calculations can drown in Melee’ And life goes on with youthful naivety Birdman of Crete or Alcatraz take all You can only catch you when you fall Soaring Icarus, gave us a great big kiss. Then Crashed into the sea… Now he’s missing me…

Rain that Smarts I’d be smarter if I drank more water And hung out with you…hangin out with you… Feel that breeze wind through the trees Stare straight up to blue…hangin out w/ you Rain…. I’d be smarter to use bricks and mortar Building it with you… Hangin out w/ you… Feel your squeeze, getting’it out of meeez Keep from feeling blue…Hangin out with you.. Rain… I’d be smarter cooking to order Scarfing slower w/you…hanging out w/ you… Feel that sneeze, wind through the trees Letting it go: Achoo… Hangin out w/ you… Rain….Rain…X2
